Emergency referal from my Doctor

"Emergency referal from my Doctor"

About: Kent & Canterbury Hospital / Accident and emergency

(as the patient),

Made Appointment at 8am for 9am appointment with GP at Estuary View yesterday that resulted in having an ECG at the Medical Centre. The GP made arrangements for me to be seen by the Emergency Clinical Care Team at Kent & Canterbury, on the same day.

On arrival at K&C (10. 15am) there was fast sign in at Reception and then straight into ECC. They conducted another ECG followed by a barrage of tests which finished with a CT Scan.

Discharged at 7pm with an all clear. BRILLIANT! Many thanks to all staff involved. Please ensure this story is passed on to all of those at Estuary View & K& C. Many thanks!

Thank you so much for providing us with fabulous feedback about our ECC service at Kent & Canterbury Hospital, another satisfied customer! Staff will be very pleased to hear your appreciation, they have been working very hard over the last few weeks, good to know that the team provides great care under pressure.

I will also ensure that Estuary View staff are aware too. We are working hard together to provide a very comprehensive service for local people.
